My precious Mother-in-Law...

I would appreciate prayers for Scott's Mother. She is having serious breathing challenges and has been in Intensive Care for the past couple of days! We are here by her side: blessed to pray WITH her and bring a smile to her face! Naturally, we would appreciate prayers for Scott's Father too! His heart is so heavy, seeing his wife (60 years) struggling! We are claiming our Lords - "Peace that Passes all Understanding" will comfort HIM throught this journey!

Also praying for Wisdom - that Scott & I know how to BEST serve his parents needs! To be a blessing to them!!!!

I have reached a new "NORMAL"

I've reached a new “NORMAL"- as they say!
Our sweet Buddy can never be replaced-

and he will be forever miss!!!

But his Sister Princess and I are bonding on a whole new level-We even went CLOTHES shopping TOGETHER, the other day! Petco was our store of choice!

OUR NEW NORMAL-Princess now owns her first DRESS and girly pink NECKLACE!

WHY?

Several family and friends suggested it would help me to get over Buddy - if I bought another dog, bunny, cat, ect! I prayed over those ideas, but felt strongly those were not my only option. Instead….I’M GOING TO CELEBRATE THE PET I ALREADY HAVE!!

And “WHAT’S NOT TO LOVE”

Birthday #4 and so much more!!!

THANK YOU LORD-

For this weeks special Family Fun: Mom and I flying together for the 1st time! Visiting our daughter and 3 grandchildren! Birthday #4 and so much more!!!

Life may not be the party we hoped for!

Life may not be the party we hoped for, but WHILE we are here…

Like my dear friend Deb - We might as well dance!

Because we women cram so much into their lives, we tend to rush through life. We live on a sparse diet of promises we make to ourselves when all the conditions are perfect!


Ours Delays-
We'll go back and visit the grandparents when we get our child toilet-trained. We'll entertain when we replace the living-room carpet.... We'll go on a second honeymoon when we get two more kids out of college.

Do you run through each day on the fly-

Have you ever watched kids playing in a park or listened to the rain hitting the ground? Ever followed a butter fly's flight or gazed at the sun into the fading night? Spend several hours in God’s word or in prayer?

When we worry or hurry through our days, it’s like an unopened gift....Thrown away..... Life is not a race, take it slower.

Like my sweet friend Elizabeth - Hear the music before the song is over!
